Am Beginn der Serie ist Richard Sharpe Sergeant des 95th Rifles Regiment, das 1809 in Portugal eingesetzt wird. Als er alleine und einhändig (ein Arm wurde bei dem Angriff verletzt) das Leben von General Sir Arthur Wellesley beim Angriff einer Gruppe französischer Reiter rettet, wird er durch Wellesley zum Leutnant befördert. In dieser Zeit ist dies eine unerhörte Ausnahme, da Offiziere "Gentlemen", in der Regel Adlige, sind und ihre Offizierspatente kaufen. Sharpe erhält das Kommando über eine Spezialeinheit der 95th Rifles. Unter ihnen befindet sich auch Gefreiter Patrick Harper  der später von Sharpe zum Sergeant und schließlich zum Sergeant Major befördert wird und sein bester Freund wird.

Das Banner des Blutes
Portugal 1809. Nachdem er Sir Arthur Wellesley das Leben rettet, wird Sgt. Richard Sharpe zum Leutnant ernannt. Sein erster Einsatz führt ihn ins feindliche Gebiet nach Casa Antiga. Dort soll er den vermissten Mittelsmann James Rothschild finden, der einen Scheck über dringend benötigte Gelder für die britische Armee bei sich trägt. Sharpe wird das Kommando über die "95th Rifles" unter Captain Murray übertragen, doch er stellt schnell fest, dass die Einheit nicht sonderlich diszipliniert ist. Weder Murray noch seine Männer sind bereit, Sharpes Befehle zu akzeptieren, da "richtige" Offiziere nicht aus den Reihen der Truppen befördert werden. Nachdem Captain Murray während eines überraschenden Angriffs der Franzosen getötet wird, ist Sharpe der alleinige Befehlshaber. Zwei spanische Verbündete, Major Blas Vivar und Comandante Teresa, erklären sich bereit, Sharpe nach Casa Antiga zu führen. Nur widerwillig stimmt er zu. In Casa Antiga finden sie jedoch keine Spur von Rothschild, was Sharpes Misstrauen seinen spanischen Kameraden gegenüber weiter schürt… Er entdeckt, dass der wahre Auftrag darin besteht, ein heiliges Relikt der Spanier nach Torrecastro zu bringen, um einen Aufstand gegen die Franzosen zu schüren.

Mit Hilfe seines treu ergebenen Sergeant Harper und der Chosen Men gelingt es ihm schließlich...
